Chapter 320: Chapter 320: Tianshan Sect’s Ultimate Technique_1
The charm Li You sent out instantly transformed into a wisp of mist, and above Ye Ming’s head, it condensed into a dark cloud.
From within the dark cloud, muffled rumblings were heard, akin to thunder.
Li You, using his own essence blood, drew a Lightning Talisman, actually intending to summon down the Nine Heavens Mystical Thunder to strike Ye Ming dead.
"The Tianshan Sect’s Lightning Talisman is so spectacular, today really has opened our eyes!"
"I’ve long heard that the Lightning Talisman of the Tianshan Sect is profound and possesses immense power. The fact that this Ye scoundrel has forced Master Li to use the Lightning Talisman means he has brought his death upon himself!"
Those who saw this magnificent scene all sighed with amazement, believing that the battle was finally coming to an end, and that the farce was about to close.
The sound of thunder grew louder, startling the spectators and causing them to retreat a few steps involuntarily.
Boom!
At last, a bolt of lightning as thick as an arm fell from the sky and struck precisely on top of Ye Ming’s head.
In an instant, dust flew in all directions, completely covering Ye Ming’s figure.
The crowd was shocked as they watched the grand spectacle, about to burst into applause.
But at that moment, a beam of golden light shot out from the dust.
Then, Ye Ming’s voice came from within the dust, "Li You, you gave me one charm, and I’ll return one to you. Let’s see if you can withstand it!"
As the dust cleared, Ye Ming’s body still stood unharmed in its original place.
The sight took everyone’s breath away.
"Why is he still unharmed, what on earth is he!"
"The Four Major Sects attacked together, even the bottom-of-the-box charm from the Tianshan Sect was used, and yet he can still stand, it’s simply unheard-of, is he human or ghost?"
The murmuring did not last long because the charm he sent out had also gathered into a dark cloud above Li You’s head.
Returning the favor with the same method used against him.
The sound of thunder was already approaching, and soon, a lightning bolt as thick as a thigh struck out from the cloud, hitting Li You on the head right on target.
After a loud bang, Li You’s body disappeared in an instant, turning into black dust scattered by the wind.
The entire place fell silent instantly, so quiet that a pin drop could be heard.
All eyes on Ye Ming were filled with terror as they looked at him as if seeing a ghost, frozen with horror.
The leaders of the Four Major Sects had seen one of their own killed in an instant. The remaining leaders immediately lost their fighting spirit, terrified out of their wits, with no desire to fight anymore.
The strength of Ye Ming was not just slightly above theirs; it was like an insurmountable mountain.
Liu Song was the first to submit, trembling as he said, "Ye Brothers, I think there has been some misunderstanding between us. We can actually talk this out. We are willing to hand over all the elixirs, hoping you will spare our lives!"
The remaining two were quick to echo.
"Ye Brothers, our sect also has many precious elixirs, you can have as much as you want, we are willing to offer them!"
"We are willing to bring out our treasure of the sect to show our sincerity!"
Now wasn’t the time to count losses, the Four Major Sects were gravely injured. If Ye Ming had no mercy, all of them would die right here.
At this moment, their address for Ye Ming had changed from thief to Ye Brothers.
The onlookers let out a collective sigh. No one could have predicted that the situation would completely turn around at this point. Ye Ming, all by himself, made the Four Major Sects submit together. Had they not seen it with their own eyes, who would believe this was true?
Liang Tianhe watched with clenched teeth in frustration. He had carefully orchestrated this play to kill Ye Ming, but he had not expected his plan to fail. It seemed Ye Ming wouldn’t die today.
Ye Ming chuckled coldly at the pleas for mercy, remaining entirely unmoved.
He looked at the few people before him and said, "Realizing your mistake only now is too late!"
"Moreover, you’re only admitting fault because you can’t defeat me, just to save your own skins."
He lazily stretched, having readied himself to begin the slaughter, and spoke indifferently, "Just now, you branded me with a big accusation, saying I’m a thief who kills for elixirs. Well then, I’ll just become that thief who kills for elixirs!"
"Now that I’m about to kill you, your elixirs will still be mine!"
Upon these words, every person from the four great sects present was terrified, their courage shattered, and they began fleeing in all directions.
In a corner, Zhou Dalong was curled up, shivering. Although he was a merchant who had seen his fair share of turmoil, the scene before him made his legs too weak to stand.
"Mr. Ye is truly like a descended deity, opening my eyes indeed!" he muttered to himself.
In Zhou Dalong’s eyes, Ye Ming was a deity; but to everyone from the four great sects, Ye Ming had become a Killer God, an entity no one dared to look at directly, only desperately running away from.
Ye Ming laughed, his icy words echoing in their ears, "Rest assured, not one of you will get away!"
The killing intent in his heart had been thoroughly ignited, making it extremely difficult to retract.
Originally, he had only intended to collect some herbs; it was these people who forced his hand.
Just as he was about to summon his Sword Qi and charge into the crowd, a commanding voice came from outside the door.
"Halt! Do not be reckless!"
The voice fell like a decree from the heavens, exerting an immense pressure.
Some recognized the voice and began shouting, "It’s Master Tao from Wanhua Valley! Our savior has arrived!"
"Master Tao, please save us, a demon is about to kill us all!"
Wanhua Valley’s reputation was well known, and upon hearing that someone from Wanhua Valley had come, people felt as if they had swallowed a sedative pill.
Ye Ming stopped what he was doing and frowned as he looked over to see a middle-aged man in a purple robe entering from the door.
His calm demeanor as he walked in immediately garnered the support of everyone present.
"Who would have thought that today’s commotion would draw out someone from Wanhua Valley!"
"With Elder Tao from Wanhua Valley here, even if Ye Ming had a hundred times the courage, he wouldn’t dare to misbehave in Elder Tao’s presence!"
"We’re all saved now; no need to run anymore!"
The people from the four great sects began discussing among themselves. They stopped running and instead gathered behind Elder Tao.
The leaders of the remaining three great sects mustered their strength to stand up and crawled before Elder Tao, saying respectfully, "Elder Tao, please save us!"
Elder Tao was quite shocked and surprised by the devastation he encountered.
He casually took out three Elixirs and handed them to the three who were seriously injured, then slowly asked, "What exactly happened here?"
"Who would be so audacious to cause trouble at the elixir exchange and injure you all so gravely?"
After consuming the Elixirs, the three regained much vitality and were able to speak more clearly.
They all pointed their fingers at Ye Ming and said to Elder Tao, "Elder Tao, this is the thief! He not only stole our herbs but also inflicted serious injuries on us. You must seek justice for us!"
"Elder Tao, I suggest we execute Ye Ming on the spot! Behead him and hang his head at the entrance to the elixir exchange!"
"That’s not enough; his bones should be extracted and fed to the wild dogs on the mountain!"
